Weapon R Coolant Reserve Tank 24 FL Oz / Universal fitment-

link to product page:
streetrays.com/...
This is a video of what comes in the box of a Weapon R 24 fluid ounce coolant reserve tank. This tank replaces the plastic factory coolant reserve tank (with a one tube bottom feed design) and allows the tank to be mounted is almost any location on the car.
features:
-lightweight polished aluminum coolant reserve tank
-high quality welds
-machined cap with o-ring seal
-breather tube near the top of the tank to allow excess air to escape (*factory tanks in most cars have an opening at the top somewhere to serve the same function)
-a removable painted bracket already mounted to the tank (will need additional hardware to mount the tank to the car itself)
The tank also comes with 2 "worm-type" hose clamps and 2'1/2" of reinforced vinyl tubing with an inner diameter of 3/8".
*the barb end is a little too large for the stock Nissan hose, but it can be coaxed on with some heat. I recommend either shaving down this barb fitting a bit or welding a new smaller one on if using this with a Nissan-sized coolant "overflow-to-radiator" hose.

Do you think this size would fit a 2016 2.0 honda civic lx-p?

I'll take some measurements and post them on here; especially of the barb fitting where this tank connects to the radiator.
This tank was fit onto a Nissan 240sx and the hose that was used was durable enough to heat and fit over the barb fitting on the tank.

The tank height including the fill cap is 8 1/4" with a diameter of 3". The barb fitting is 1/4" diameter (barb is slightly larger). The 5/16" inner diameter hose going from the radiator to this tank I heated with a heat gun to make it more flexible to help fit it over the barb fitting and then it was secured further with metal hose clamp.

is the top hose the return hose? or where does that hook up too? i want to get one for 96' caprice

The pneumatic 90 deg fitting with the short length of hose (near fill cap) is just a vent to relieve excess pressure within the tank itself; it does not connect to anything. The flared/barbed fitting welded on the side of the tank near the bottom, is the one that goes into the fitting right next to the radiator cap (just like how the OEM coolant reservoir is installed).
These tanks are pretty universal, so you shouldn't have too much trouble fitting it. The only thing I would advise you to do is to check the sizing of the bottom fitting against your tubing and fitting on the radiator. Mine was slightly larger, but I was able to coax the tubing into place with some heat; just temporarily until I have the time to weld on a smaller fitting.
The walls on the bottom fitting are pretty thick too, so they could be filed down; just make sure to clean out all the filings before use. Alternatively, One could also weld on a new, smaller fitting (like I mentioned above) or use a high temp tubing adapter. Hope this helps : ]

thank you for your quick response. so which one of these nice looking coolant overflow tanks could i get for my car? i know you said it was universal and the top hose connects to nothing. but my stock one has two hoses one goes to radiator (bottom hose) and top hose goes to something else, not sure what. any clue which one i could get?

To be honest, I'm not familiar with Caprices.
